Last year my husband and I celebrated the holidays quietly at home alone because my s/s attempt was 12/23/14. I was concerned about just getting passed the first anniversary in one piece. I did have a fairly minor manic episode though.

There are always the memories of the people we have lost over the years to deal with, and to complicate things, my husband and I have conflicts with living family members as well.

I've been doing very well thus far, and hope it continues. IDK, maybe I will have problems as the anniversary gets closer, but maybe not. I'm in a good place right now, but haven't had much luck staying stable for long lately, and that concerns me. I think managing my anxiety will be very important.
